Some arches like x86 need all memory mapped so that they can
fetch information placed arbitrarily by firmware, like ACPI
tables.
Ensure that if this is the case, the kernel won't accidentally
clobber it by thinking the relevant virtual memory is unused.
Otherwise this has no effect on page frame management.

If we evict enough pages to completely fill the backing store,
through APIs like k_mem_map(), z_page_frame_evict(), or
z_mem_page_out(), this will produce a crash the next time we
try to handle a page fault.
The backing store now always reserves a free storage location
for actual page faults.
